The lockdown has already disproportionately hurt marginalized communities due to loss of livelihood and lack of food, shelter, health, and other basic needs. The COVID 19 lockdown strategy after 3 rd May in order to free up unaffected area has been made by the government, as per the national COVID 19 guidelines, districts are divided into green with zero Covid- 19 cases, orange with less than five cases and red if there are more than six COVID-19 cases. Uttara Kannada district is under Orange zone. There are 794 endosulfan pesticide affected victims in Sirsi-Siddapura, Ankola- Kumta & Honnavar taluk of Uttara Kannanda district. These victims are in urgent need of support as they can’t work, their care givers are daily wage labourer and their income is impacted and they are in remote locations they do not have access to essential items. Endosulfan victims are those who had an adverse effect due to aerial and hand spray of endosulfan to control the pest during the early part of 1980’s. Most of the people lost their active parts of the body and mental balance too. The new born babies also got severely affected making them totally inactive and immobile. One can imagine the disaster caused by the endosulfan spray and the socio-economic damage made on mankind. The life of Victims and their family members are miserable in all aspects due to lack of care and facilities which needs to be looked into. SCODWES is working for these victims since last 4 years & providing health care services at their door steps through our Mobile Medical Unit initiative with the help of Department of Health & Family welfare, Govt of Karnataka. These 794 endosulfan victims are spread over 218 villages in 26 Panchayats of Sirsi- Siddapur, Ankola- Kumta & Honnavar taluk of Uttara Kannada district. To support these marginalized communities during the outbreak of pandemic and lockdown, there is need of supply of essential items like grocery and hygiene kits. We have planned to provide dry ration and non-food essential items to these 794 endosulfan victims’ families. Project Objective: • To provide the basic essential needs to the Endosulfan victims and their care givers to minimize their discomfort during lockdown. • To minimize spreading of COVID-19 in the community by creating awareness among the community. Geography: 218 villages of Sirsi- Siddapura, Ankola –Kumta & Honnavar taluk of Uttara Kannada district. Target Segment : The project beneficiaries are the 794 endosulfan victims, their family members of 218 villages in 26 Gram Panchayats (where these Endosulfan affected families reside) of Sirsi- Siddapura, Ankol- Kumta & Honnavar Taluk of Uttara Kannada district, Karnataka state.

Humanitarian Aid Providing essential food and non-food items / Hygiene kits for 794 endosulfan affected families 5 taluk of Uttara Kannada district: Most of the victims affected by endosulfan pesticide & their care givers are from marginalized & daily wage workers who do not have buying capacity; hence they were not prepared for this sudden suspension. These family’s needs to be supported with food kits and non-food essentials. These families will be distributed food kit in line with agreed norms of Sphere India Standards (2100 kcals per person per day). As of now, these families have been provided rice and wheat by Govt. Hence we are providing essential dry ration except rice and wheat for 20 – 25 days for a family of 4-5 members. We will ensure that appropriate government guidelines are followed, personal safety measures are taken and physical distancing norms followed. Providing health services, facilitating early detection and Screening of COVID 19 through our Mobile Medical Unit: We help/facilitate Government health authorities in early detection and screening of the patients with symptoms through our Mobile Medical Unit which is operating on daily basis to provide health services at these villages along with providing basic health services. We work with close collaboration with department field personnel and front line workers like ASHA & anganwadi workers. We will inform the ASHA, frontline workers and Panchayat team our approach & support model so that in case they come across any community member with symptoms they can inform our MMU for screening. If any villager found with symptoms, he will be addressed and given treatment through our Mobile Medical Unit and will be referred to the taluka hospital for further treatment and the same should be informed to the health authorities for further action and follow up. 2.
